If Celtic beat Kilmarnock on Saturday and The Rangers fail to beat Aberdeen on Sunday then the title will be Celtic’s along with the top amount of money.
The cash is not earth-shattering for Celtic with the league prize money paling in comparison to even the club’s Europa League run.
The money, however, can be reinvested in the club going forward and with so many changes expected this summer from the manager to personnel – the bhoys will have a quick pre-season before heading back into Euro qualifiers to try and earn the big bucks!
